Question 1

What is The Lower NASCAR Series?

Accepted Answer

Like most sports, NASCAR has a top series and several lower divisions that help develop talent and grow the sport. Most people know about the NASCAR Cup series, which is the top NASCAR series (previously known as the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.) Most race fans watch the NASCAR Cup series on Sundays to see the best drivers.

The NASCAR Xfinity Series is one step below the top series. Most fans and experts in stock car racing think of this series as the "minor league." NASCAR Cup Series races and Xfinity Series races often take place on the same track. Most of the time, these smaller races happen the day before the big event. NASCAR also has the Camping World Truck Series. Instead of classic stock cars, this series has pickup trucks. The last part of NASCAR's professional racing lineup is the ARCA Menards series.
